What to wear for a paragliding flight?
It is necessary to have trainers or closed shoes and to bring trousers and a windbreaker, even if you do not use them during the flight.
At an altitude of over 1000 metres, there can be a big difference in temperature and wind.
How long does the flight take?
The duration of the flight may vary depending on the weather conditions and the passenger's abilities.
It also depends on the type of flight you choose.
From what age can I fly a paraglider?
There is no age limit for flying. When you are a child from 4 or 5 years old, we can take a child if he wants to and if he is ready, without any problem.
Concerning the maximum age limit, if the person is mobile, can walk and scoot, then we can take him/her and choose the right conditions to take him/her flying.
Are you afraid of heights when paragliding?
Surprisingly, this is a concept we don't have because our feet don't touch the ground and we are sitting comfortably.
Don't be afraid to fly if you are afraid of heights, because you won't be afraid at all once you are in the air!

As a general rule, there is no minimum weight for paragliding. However, to take light people we will choose the right moment in the day. For the maximum weight, we stop at 115kg for the passenger.
Can I fly a paraglider if I am pregnant?
For pregnant women, it is better not to fly, even if there are no shocks or risks, we prefer to tell them to wait and find the right moment to fly serenely.
For what reasons can my flight be cancelled?
When you book a flight, it may be cancelled through no fault of our own.
We take the weather report the day before and if we think there is going to be rain, thunderstorms or too much wind we prefer to cancel the flight for safety reasons.
